Her Gift of Giving was appreciated
There is a girl at work here who I never knew very well, but when I was away after my mother died she watered the plants on my desk for me, without anyone asking her to. I was really touched by that, so for Christmas I made a donation in her name also. So today I gave her a little paper crane ornament that I made, along with a card stating that I had donated a flock of chickens in her name. At first she thought it was a joke, like "she got me a flock of chickens??". Actually, she says she thought I was using my "Charleen humor" HAHAHAHAHAHA, but then her co-worker pointed out the paragraph that states what the chickens were for. So then she comes running over and tells me how much she LOVED the gift, and that she "never got a flock of chickens for Christmas before!" And later she told me that when she was growing up she used to raise chickens, so she knows how much good they can do for a family. And then later I passed her in the hall and she started skipping down the hall saying, "I got chickens for Christmas! Donated in my name! Best present I EVER GOT!!!" And that made me really, really, really happy. Posted by Pischina at December 22, 2005 1:15 PMComments
